Both documents must state the title of the piece of writing clearly.

Entries will be confirmed, assigned a number and made anonymous upon receipt. Judges will not be privy to entrants' names during the reading and judging process. Names will be reattributed to entries only after the winners have been decided.

Writers Ink. e.V. reserves the right to disqualify any entry if there are reasonable grounds to believe that the entrant has breached any of these terms and conditions or made a false declaration on the entry form.

Writers Ink. e.V. will act in accordance with current German data protection legislation
regarding your personal data.
